AfterImage: A Brokenhearted Memoir of a Charmed Life

In this fiercely personal account of her battling the before, and surviving the after, of losing her husband to cancer, Carla Malden takes us on a journey through grief to gratitude that alerts the entire forever-young generation: this is not your mother's widowhood. AfterImage is a story of love more than loss, memory more than sorrow, life more than death.
